SPEARFISH, S.D. (AP) — A Spearfish man has claimed a lottery jackpot of nearly $85,000.

Jake Barbarevech bought a ticket at a Deadwood convenience store that won the Dakota Cash jackpot in Wednesday's drawing. He says he hadn't played the game for a couple of years but decided to buy a ticket while buying tickets for other lottery games.

He and his wife, Linda, plan to use the money to catch up on bills.

The Dakota Cash jackpot starts again at $20,000 for the next drawing, on Saturday.
